Story
My personal journey, and the cycling experience on which I have built my success, is the reason for my next cycling challenge. A mere decade ago I was being treated for severe symptoms of Bipolar
Affective Disorder and told that I’d never be a contributing member of society without the use of harsh prescription medication. Now I own
and operate a multi-national business, operating in nearly 20 countries, without the aid of any medication.
In September 2018, I will attempt to break the World Record for the fastest cycle ride of America’s iconic Route 66, 2500 miles in under 11 days. The ride will be in aid of two charities, Mind (UK) and NAMI (US) – both do amazing work in their respective countries and help many people who haven’t been as successful as I have been in finding mental stability.
Welcome to my personal fundraising page for Mind. Mind aims to change public attitudes and government policy towards mental health whilst raising awareness. We also continue to ensure that everyone with a mental health problem has somewhere to turn for advice and support. The money raised from this event will help us to continue with our vital works.
I have created this fundraising page because Mind, and the work they do, is very important to me. Donating to me through this page is easy, fast and secure. Both Mind and I appreciate your donation.
Anyone donating at least £50.00 will get a mention in one of my videos.
Anyone donating at least £100.00 will get the following:
- A free training plan from Direct Power Coaching (potentially worth more than your donation amount!)
- A £10.00 voucher to spend at Precision Hydration (also use code ‘PAV15’ to get 15% off your first order)
- 25% off monthly fees with The Beardy PT FOR LIFE! (potentially worth more than your donation amount!)
- 10% off a carbon wheelset (valued at £500.00 or more) from Zed Wheels (potentially worth more than your donation amount!)
- A 20% discount off of a Spruzza device
Note: if you wish to receive any of the benefits (in the £100 or more group) you MUST NOT donate with Gift Aid, all donations will be checked and anyone who gives with Gift Aid will not be able to receive benefits (not my law, sorry!). Please save your receipt and email me once you wish to claim your benefits – please note that one claim per receipt and we will be adding more benefits along the way, so it pays to be patient!
Thank you so much for your support.
